Every day I see a news report about the coming Flupocalypse and you better get your shot lest you want to turn into a radioactive brain eating zombie. Of course THE NEXT news item is how we're only getting 5% of our expected quantity of vaccines and the only people who can afford to stand on line for 12 hours are the fossil-American oldsters who are in the lowest risk group.

I heard that the Democrat districts in Illinois were receiving priority there.

Leftwingers are all the same deep down at heart. Social Democrats, Socialists, Greens, Communists, and so on and so forth...

Creation of artificial scarcity of vaccines was suggested at CFR not long ago, there's a video clip of that, as way to get people to take the vaccine. As for disaster movie scenarios...oh yeah, and for worse, check out Ukraine's situation (for updates: ukraineplague blog on blogspot), the reporting's still mixed on whether it's a swine flu mutation, pneumonic plague or what, but it's insane...and freaky with the prescient Joseph Moshe tie-in. (Moshe was the guy in the red VW beatle who was surrounded by heavily-armored law enforcement in a standoff after having reported of some planned Ukrainian virus.) Here in Florida, we have a mandatory vaccine or quarantine "by any means necessary" law...someone sued, but I doubt she has a chance, b/c she has no harm to her yet, only anticipated harm.

Here in South Carolina we are well armed and dont put up with shit like that.

On a side note, just think of how many lives could have been saved if AIDS/HIV had been quarantined in the early 80s.

But then that would mean rounding up homos and dark skinned people, and we cant have that!

Notice how fast the Marburg virus was contained in Angola a few years ago.

Political correctness unleashed AIDS upon the world. Just one of its many benefits. The gift that keeps on sodomizing.

EV you are full of it.

I usually would fair to comment on a thread like this - especially with the clearly unintellegent racist comment above However to curb the drama, since I was there, I can tell you two things. One, I was there to get my 2 children the H1N1 shot, I'm estimating we were about 300th in line. The line was completely orderly with no issue- in fact, I left the line several times to walk my 17 mth old around the lobby area and no one tackled me when I came back to my spot. 2nd, the only people that were turned away were those that came after 12:45 (the clinic was closing at 2). So, knowing that these shots were first come, first serve, someone coming at 12:45 has got to know they may be out by then.

To the original poster, I feel bad that you received poor information as you would have been able to get a shot without a problem if you had stayed.

If you mean, full of the truth. Then yes.

Speaking Truth to Power is what I do.

It's been said that I mock Leftwing (in American slang liberal) orthodoxy with such zeal it can seem like a parody.

But make no mistake, I am for real. I like to use provocative language around race, to mock and expose it, to break down the PC walls which demand public genuflections, tip toes, and taboos.

I am the Alinsky Conservative....Im here, Im a White Anglo Saxon Christian Heterosexual Male....hear me roar!

I live to destroy the Western Left Zeitgeist, the false consciousness that it promotes in service of its own power.

Your problem is that sarcasm requires common understanding. Once you reach an impasse in the discussion and misunderstanding sets in, and then frustration (making the sarcasm more tempting) this sort of ironic discourse gets us lost and makes things worse. And then suddenly people aren't getting the irony at all and simply start viewing you as a racist, and by then people have long-since stopped listening to you. What good does that do?

It takes all kinds Solomon.

One of the genius of the Western New Leftist movements is that the radicals opened up space for less radical but still ideologically similar folks to gain prominence and respectability as a centrist of somebody that people can compromise with.

We need a multi pronged approach, self reinforcing.

Our politics are very similar, however I make you look reasonable. I create space where you are not the farthest out there, so that you are not called an extremist radical reactionary. Well you are, but you get the gist of what I am saying.

Keep up the good work.

As an aside...

Snark and sarcasm are rampant within the Western Conservative movement, arent they. Jaded outcasts expressing their disdain for the New Establishment.

Think of me as a Conservative Abbie Hoffman.
